Overview

• Washington waived the 22-year-old on Oct. 15 to open a roster spot with Dylan McIlrath nearing activation.
• San Jose used top waiver priority from finishing 32nd last season to claim Iorio on Oct. 16.
• The Sharks created space by moving Liljegren to IR, with John Klingberg also described as uncertain after recent knocks.
• A 2021 second-round pick, Iorio won back-to-back Calder Cups with AHL Hershey and has nine NHL games on his resume.
• He is in the final year of his entry-level contract and will be an RFA; if re-waived and reclaimed only by Washington, he could be assigned directly to Hershey.
